Super sensitive. That’s what I am. I’m still trying to assimilate the weirdness (thus far) from yesterday’s eclipse, August 5, 2009. I had some strange physical effects, and it felt like the veil between the worlds was thinner than ever yesterday. In fact, I know it was, based on what [...]

For years, I’ve been a little terrified of what it would mean when Uranus transitted my Natal Venus. If you’re not conversant in astrology, please understand that I tend to think of it as a language rather than a science and that it’s all about patterns with celestial bodies as the [...]

I’m a huge fan of solar return charts. These are special “birthday” charts that give you an idea of the influences around you for the year following your most recent birthday, though you may feel some of these influences up to three months before and after your actual birthday year, [...]

From earnest followers of astrology to people who know only that “Mercury in Retrograde” is the herald of computer crashes, missed messages, and flat tires, most people I know cringe when they heard the phrase. If you’re a believer in the ill effects of the seeminly backward motion of this [...]

There’s an edginess that’s been in the air for the past couple of hours. It’s the kind of feeling you get after a fight with a lover or when a dream just got deferred. I can’t pin it down but it’s been intense. Weighty. It’s nothing new…but I wasn’t [...]

I’m a pattern junkie–I love seeing how things repeat and give clues to the next thing in the cycle. In astrology, one of the signposts of major expansion for me is whenever Jupiter is conjunct my planets. As usual, I’ll show what I mean by example.

For the past year, I’ve used “going with the flow of energy” as a guideline for making the most of my efforts. On a very tiny scale, this principle was as simple as having a sudden urge to clean the house from top to bottom—and doing it while [...]

It’s 1 AM, the morning of Halloween. Halloween, not Samhain, for the Sun is not yet at 15 degrees of Scorpio.
Something in the house is troubling me, taunting. Only now do I remember the talisman on my dresser. I’ve hardly slept at all in my room these past few weeks, choosing instead [...]
